The range at Rifles Only will not be open to zero weapons, so have your weapons zeroed and ready to shoot before arriving. As well the Range will be closed for maintenance on Thursday, so no one will have access to the range prior to competition without attending the train up.

    The competition will contain a mix of traditional tactical scenarios along with a physical Run & Gun Portion so be sure you are healthy enough for a competition of this caliber.

    Competitions at RIFLES ONLY include scenarios from hunting, military, and police engagements. They allow the shooter the best opportunity to network with other shooters and learn about new techniques and equipment. Competitions are an excellent form of training. These competitions are challenging and enjoyable for all competitors. We usually host a "Train-up" session the several days leading up to the competition. The Train-up offers competitors, either seasoned or new to competing, the opportunity to acclimatize, exercise their equipment in on the ground conditions, and benefit from several days of expert instruction to hone their skills for the contest. The Bunk House is also available for competitors for $15 a night but will be on a first come first serve basis.

    Re: 2009 Fall Shooters Bash @ Rifles Only

    Lowlight said registration opens the 19th. But he only used a small font but bold lettering. So he really meant registration does not open until (Tuesday) August 19, 2009 at 10:00am (CST).
     
    Re: 2009 Fall Shooters Bash @ Rifles Only

    Two quick questions as I have never done this or SH Cup events:

    1) What is the official time clock we can go by so that we don't submit too early?

    2) When you submit the registration form, do you have to submit the payment also at the time or can you wait until you find out if you made the cut?

    Re: 2009 Fall Shooters Bash @ Rifles Only

    the Clock begins tomorrow at 10AM CST.... fill out the form and hit submit, but not early.

    Lisa will contact you with payment details.

    Re: 2009 Fall Shooters Bash @ Rifles Only

    Since I've been in depositions all day, I'm prolly sucking wind!!!
     
    Re: 2009 Fall Shooters Bash @ Rifles Only

    I'm in! Can't wait to get down there! I'm gonna do the train up as well...
    Sweet! Just got a travel voucher that will cover the cost of the match AND the train-up! Woot!
     
    Re: 2009 Fall Shooters Bash @ Rifles Only

    There are a few spots left, especially when we consider the usual drop outs, so if you were thinking about attending but were afraid you missed the boat, we have about 10 spots we can handle with no problem.
     
    Re: 2009 Fall Shooters Bash @ Rifles Only

    I have a lot of things up in the air right now, I won't be able to commit for this. I just don't know where I'll be at the time of the match, but I'm gonna try my best to make it, and hopefully there will be a drop out spot I can sneak into come time.

    I'll be at the Cup fo sho though...

    Its nice to know that we can always count on Lowlight to look out for us. When Chad tried to up the price on the match who was there to look out for the working man during this economy and kept the price reasonable? Now, who is looking out for the guy who didn't have the flexibility to be online at work? What a guy.

    Re: 2009 Fall Shooters Bash @ Rifles Only

    Everyone should have received an email by now that signed up. If you did not, check your "junk" box.
    Still lots to do so talk to you later! Looking forward to having everyone down here. Several new people this year!!!
     
    Re: 2009 Fall Shooters Bash @ Rifles Only

    Congrats you guys who made it. You will have a great time. I need to win the lotto so I don't have to work and can make it down whenever I please. Unfortunately I do have to work and couldn't get the time off to make the match. This is the first year since 2004 that I haven't made it down to RO atleast once a year and I miss it already.

    Re: 2009 Fall Shooters Bash @ Rifles Only

    We'll miss you at the match, Rob! Perhaps you can arrange to come next year. I hated it when work got in the way of what I was really interested in!
     
    Re: 2009 Fall Shooters Bash @ Rifles Only

    You'll be missed Rob, what about the rest of the Blaster boys?
     
    Re: 2009 Fall Shooters Bash @ Rifles Only

    Lindy I will be at the SH Cup come hell or high water! We have to put in for the next year's leave in December so knowing dates ahead of time helps alot as if you don't have the days off you have to hope there are enough on to take leave. Sometimes there is and sometimes there isn't. More times the latter this past year. I wanted to try to make Terry and Jim's match too but again it's a no go. This year hasn't been good but I am going to try to make next year better.

    427, I know Tony won't be there because he'll be in Mexico on vacation. Not sure about Kevin.

    Now to get back on topic, looks like everyone that made in has started to get the email.

    Guys

    Not trying to hijack this thread, but I would like your input...

    Blackhawk CQC Serpa Holster (this is tough because everyone has different pistols):
    http://www.hitechtactical.com/Blackhawk-Level-2-Tactical-SERPA-Holster.html

    Warrior Wear Tactical Pants (sizes being an issue):
    http://www.hitechtactical.com/Blackhawk-Warrior-Wear-Tactical-Pants.html
